> Why does it insert the Summary: header line, anyway?

Because the log-edit buffer now uses an RFC822-style format.  We should
probably push this further and make the separating line between the header
and the body more clear (e.g. font-lock it into a thin horizontal bar).

It depends on the VC backend.
